Thought we played dopey for the first half of the third last night after doing almost the exact same thing to ourselves at the end of the second.

Hope we can learn from that and dictate from the start and take away the hope we just handed them on a silver platter.

Happens every night too. If knob is serious he benches the next player that does that for a few shifts

Idk man, every team is going to get some high danger chances. On average every team gets and gives up 13.

Seattle has 3 so far tonight.

At a certain point, if you get too harsh on people they'll just shut down. The team is working hard defensively and is bought in.

The other thing is - our xGA is low. Statistically it's born out that the teams doing it's job. We're top 3 in every defensive metric out there except for save percentage, high danger save percentage, and goals saved above expected.

On a game by game basis we give up less high danger chances than Sutter's edition of the Kings for f***s sake.

So, everyone hates Kapanen for the giveaway, but I sure like that he immediately put his head down and was pumping his legs all the way down the ice to try to recover and didn't stop until the puck was in.

There are a few guys on this team who would have been coasting most of the way back after a giveaway like that.
Bouch *cough * lol

Oilers are in love with their mustache. AHL guy can have a 940 they would not try him and probably end up trading him
Do you guys have to complain about Skinner in every thread? Sheesh.

It's really annoying and unwarranted considering his play in the last month or so.
He's given up more than 2 goals 3 times in the last 12 and one of those times was 3 goals. Some of you need to lay off a bit.

I noticed that as well. Too bad he wasn't able to cover enough ground but it sure wasn't because of a lack of effort that's for damn sure. 1 bad play doesn't cancel out his quality play since joining our team.
